No sugar added, so healthy too.
These Til Chikki/ Sesame Brittles are very healthy to eat in these cozy winter season as these til/ sesame seeds are hot in nature. Eat a Til Chikki/ Til Ladoo a day and keep yourself warm 😀
Learn Step By Step Recipe With Pictures for Til Chikki/ Sesame Brittle
Ingredients:
- 1 Cup til/ sesame seeds
- 1 Cup gud/ jaggery
- 1/2 Cup water
- 1/2 Tsp oil/ ghee
Recipe:
Step 1- Roast sesame seeds on low flame until they start fluttering and are lightly brown. Turn off the flame and remove in a plate
Step 2- Now add jaggery in a pan and start heating on low flame. Add 1/2 of water. By doing this you would get time to roll chikki or else it would get hard soon. Once the jaggery is melted add 1/2 tsp of oil. DO not add more oil/ghee
Tip: To check the consistency of jaggery drop some melted jaggery in a glass of water and if you are able to roll it, it’s perfectly done. Else cook more
Step 3- Add the roasted sesame seeds to the melted jaggery and mix well
Step 4- Prepare a rolling board/ plate by applying some oil/ghee and spread the mixture on rolling board/ plate and roll slightly to give a good shape
After rolling make the cuts immediately so that you get the proper shape or else it will become hard. Til chikki is ready. Store in an airtight container.
